Training for Local Agencies

Caltrans' Local Assistance Training Programs

The Caltrans Division of Local Assistance has partnered with California State University Sacramento's (CSUS) College of Continuing Education and University of California, Berkeley's (UCB) Institute of Transportation Studies to provide training and technical assistance as part of the Cooperative Training Assistance Program (CTAP) and Local Technical Assistance Program (LTAP). These programs provide subsidized, practical training for transportation professionals in California's cities, counties, and regional transportation agencies.

CSUS maintains the Local Assistance Training website (www.californialtap.org), where you can access information and register for upcoming Federal-Aid Series and Resident Engineer Academy courses throughout the State. CSUS also runs the LTAP program, which includes the retroreflectometer loan program, quarterly informational newsletter, distribution of technology transfer materials, and provision of information services and training.

Caltrans will be working closely with CSUS and UCB to provide additional training in the near future. Please visit the appropriate sites to register for courses, request information, provide suggestions / feedback, etc. If you have any recommendations or needs to certain training courses, please provide those as well.
